Free Diamonds

The Free Diamonds are a trio from Newcastle, England, that blend the British neo-new wave danceable rock of contemporaries like Franz Ferdinand, the Arctic Monkeys, and Q and Not U with an unexpected hint of influence from Primus' wacky Captain Beefheart and Frank Zappa-influenced alterna-prog. The Free Diamonds consist of guitarist Scott Anderson, bassist Paul Cosgrove, and drummer Dave Morton. Signed to the American indie label Deep Elm Records, the Free Diamonds released their debut album, There Should Be More Dancing, in the spring of 2006. ~ Stewart Mason, Rovi
